Conformally coupled induced gravity with gradient torsion

Conformally coupled induced gravity with gradient torsion

It is found that conformally coupled induced gravity with gradient torsion gives dilaton gravity in Riemann geometry. In the Einstein frame of dilaton gravity the conformal symmetry is hidden and a nonvanishing cosmological constant is not plausible due to the constraint of the conformal coupling.
